NACCHO recognizes the West Hartford-Bloomfield Health District’s (WHBHD) Connecticut Coalition Against Healthcare-Acquired Infections Team (CCAH) as its latest Infection Prevention and Control (IPC) Champion.
The Shared Healthcare Intervention to Eliminate Life-Threatening Dissemination of multidrug-resistant organisms (MDROs) in Orange County (SHIELD OC) Program, was a CDC-funded public health regional decolonization collaborative to combat the spread of endemic and emerging MDROs across healthcare facilities in Orange County, California.

NACCHO is offering a scholarship opportunity for local health department staff obtaining certification in infection control (CIC) or a-IPC (Associate – Infection Prevention and Control) entry-level certification. The deadline to submit an application is the end of the day on Friday, January 27.
HAIs and AMR are a threat to patients, and subsequently, public health safety. Rural, Frontier, and Small LHDs face distinct barriers and can provide leadership in surveillance, outbreak investigations, and prevention by collaborating with healthcare and community partners.
Applications due December 19. NACCHO is giving funds to local health departments to enhance local capacity to prevent and respond to healthcare-associated infections and antimicrobial resistant threats by piloting and implementing CDC's Local Strategy for HAI/AR.
